RobertEG, I didn't know that a higher CL will bring down scores, so thank you for that info.

Definitely. Do you want it frozen, on the rocks, or in a shot glass?

Now...that was funny Hey remember, I'm only 2 points over 660 on the TU scores, which isn't much, so I don't know if I can spare 2 points. lol.Hey Masdeocho, do I qualify for a Ficotini?
Hello,
The last time I posted was about 7 years ago. I started out with a 471 and up to a 702 by 2011. I wanted to give some an update to this wonderful forum...hello haulingupthescore, Tuscani...you all were awesome back in the day and I see you are still around...very encouraging.
Well, in 2011 I got hit hard in with my job... I got laid off and I had savings but I had to find a place to live/ Being over 40 and white color was very VERY hard in the job market in 2011. I moved and there was no work in the healthcare industry with the pay I was making. Most of my bills were paid but there were some that I did't think about "pay off these CC if something happens to my job" CC to pay off. During 2011- and up May 2014... I had side jobs, PT work at grocery store...but my parents reared me up not to be scared of work and do what you have to do. No cable, no hobbies, car repossession, first time judgements and more collections for which I was not use too,...just struggling like many that went thru the recession starting from 2008. With that said, my CS dropped from 702 to 544. But, Hey, I build it once, I can do it again.
Well, I'm now employed with a sound company (not too much real estate in job security though...I got burn once. lol) and have a side business and making some good money , so I paying off my debt. It feels good to be working a job(s) again. I'm determine to get it back up. I will be posting a lot of questions and will be keeping you all posted and reaching out too some of you. I just learned something new tonight regarding paying things over 2 years old.
